Analysis

One will never go wrong with Taman TAR, the location is just great with the lush unspoiled forest behind it. Then, the air here is fresh and breezy. Besides that, it is also strategically sited within 10 minutes drive to the city centre via Ampang-Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH). Moreover, some residents also enjoy magnificent view of the city centre skyline. Most of the houses here are very old aged around 20 years old and they seem already run-down, but about half of the owners have renovated their homes. If you insist to buy a newer one, then perhaps you should buy the bungalow plot at The Peak @ Taman TAR which is quoted around RM220 psf, as well as build your own mansion within the gated and guarded enclave. But, mind you that the land is also leasehold just like the rest of Taman TAR.
